Additional Information

On capacitor 5 the code below works as expected. It requests permission to read from gallery and then shows the gallery to pick an image. With capacitor 6, on button click nothing happens

With only these 2 permissions in the AndroidManifest.xml file uses-permission android:name="android.permission.READ_MEDIA_IMAGES" uses-permission android:name="android.permission.READ_EXTERNAL_STORAGE"

Android version tested - 12 (works here), 13 (not working) and 14 (not working)

`async selectImage(): Promise {

try {
  await Camera.requestPermissions();
} catch {
  // do nothing
}

let img: Photo = null;

try {
  img = await Camera.getPhoto({
    quality: 90,
    allowEditing: false,
    resultType: CameraResultType.Base64,
    source: CameraSource.Photos
  });
} catch {
  // cancel image from gallery
}

if (img) {
 // continue the flow below
}

}`

Any idea how should I proceed here, do I need to add some extra code or permissions to the manifest file? Thank you
